General Help - We find that the windows explorer browser, works best. All should work great with just the standard explorer browser.

AOL users can simply, after you log onto the net, minimize your AOL Netscape browser,, next open and use the explorer browser.

If you must use AOl-Netscape you might need to download additional plugins for sound and java. http://www.home.netscape.com/plugins/audio-video.html

Sending Pages - How can I email the page to someone?

With most of the new browsers, Netscape6 and Explorer, you can click on the word file at the top left of your page. At this point a menu will open, with explorer click on the word send and then click send a link, this will open your mail program and the link will be there for them. With Netscape you can also click on the file and when the menu comes up click on send link or page with either AOL mail or Netscape mail.

The sure way to share a page with a friend is to just start a letter to your friend's,
Next tell them where the page is,
Example, See this great page at ( www.ech.org ) Look for the, Volunteer page.
